Q is for Quaker, page for An Alphabet • William Nicholson, illustrator (British/English, 1872-1949 ) • William Heinemann, London, publisher • 1898 (first edition) • Lithographs of hand-coloured woodcuts

There were three issues of the first edition of William Nicholson's classic alphabet. The deluxe issue had "E is for Executioner" and "T is for Toper" but these were deemed improper for a wider audience and the two other issues (this one and the library issue) had "E is for Earl" and "T is for Trumpeter" instead. ~ Wikipedia

A Gashlycrumb Halloween

This Halloween we present a few pages from one of American writer and artist Edward Gorey's (1925-2000) most well-known books, The Gashlycrumb Tinies, published in New York by Peter Weed Books in 1962.

For those unfamiliar with the work, The Gastlycrumb Tinies is an alphabet book that details the untimely end of 26 children after an outing in thirteen rhyming dactylic couplets, accompanied by Gorey's distinctive pen and ink drawings. While among our favorites are "N is for Neville who died of ennui" and "S is for Susan who perished of fits," we selected what we think are the most ghastly, gruesome, and horrific pages for your Halloween pleasure.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
